...Tis an older piece, but still stings with the newness of mended wings and sharp, shiny things... Enjoy, I guess...

In etchings,
in paper waves
I may ink
and pinpoint my own.

The dull got sharp
about sixteen days ago
when my heart
found evergreen
and manifested
a new design.

It was then
that statues
were moving
in other realms,
just dreaming
of the forest closures...

If it was in sin
that we were born,
then in sin
we shall remain.
There is no repentance.
There is no death.

So anchor your ships, sailors
commandeer your way
to the edges of evergreen,
signal with flame
that you have arrived
and we will depart
on your journey.

Give no other man
the right to claim
what you have,
instead~
share it
with all who bare
your openness.

Give them seeds
and you shall find
that the world
is forever green...
